Trooper Arrests Two after finding Kilo of Cocaine

Putnam County—Thursday morning at 7:45, an Indiana State Police Trooper was working along Interstate 70. The Trooper observed a black Chevy Cruze traveling eastbound near the 36 mile marker with the registration improperly displayed. A traffic stop was initiated and during the stop several indicators of possible criminal activity were detected.
